David’s 911 Call For Help (1-2)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 4, 2022

Psalm 35 is another of David’s imprecatory prayers. In it David appeals to a righteous God to send judgment upon the enemies of God, and the persecutors of His righteous people.

WHY DID DAVID PRAY SUCH A PRAYER? It is believed that since Old Testament characters did not have the benefit of the New Testament, they did not have a complete revelation of the judgment seat of Christ. Therefore they believe the wicked had to be judged and to be rewarded in this life for ...read more

Where Is The Lord God Of Elijah? (1 Of 2)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 5, 2022

As I read through this passage, it appears that Elijah is testing Elisha. Look at verse 2. He said to Elisha, “...Tarry here, I pray thee; for the Lord hath sent me to Beth-el...”

But notice Elisha’s response in that same verse, “...As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee...”Then look at verse 4. Elijah seems to test Elisha again. He said, “...tarry here...for the Lord hath sent me to Jericho...” Again, same verse, Elisha responds, “...As ...read more

Jesus Is At A Different Level Series

If Jesus were an ER physician and had dealt with the chronic condition of the women first, only to allow the twelve-year-old girl to die… He would have been sued for wrongful death.

The Ten Commandments Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 18, 2021

When you appear before a holy God, you would no more approach Him than you would walk into shark-infested waters. When God appears in front of you and you tremble in awestruck fear, it is a wise thing to call for a mediator to stand between you and He.

Powerful Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jun 19, 2021

It’s so appropriate that all our money has the motto, “In God We Trust.” To understand why it’s there, you have to go all the way back to the Civil War when a Pennsylvania pastor requested the Secretary of the Treasury Salmon P.
